President Claudia Sheinbaum celebrated a significant political victory as U.S. President Donald Trump backed down on imposing tariffs on Mexican goods, attributing his decision to Sheinbaum's negotiation skills. Tens of thousands gathered in Mexico City's Zócalo to express approval and unity, marking a rise in her approval ratings. While making concessions like deploying more troops and extraditing drug offenders, she asserted Mexico's sovereignty. This careful balancing act has positioned her as a prominent global leader, contrasting sharply with her peers who have struggled under Trump's pressure.
"We cannot cede our sovereignty, nor can we let our people be hurt by decisions that foreign governments or powers make."
"It has given her a global presence that is distinct."
"out of respect for President Sheinbaum," he said.
"Mexico! Mexico!" in a sign of how the nation's first female president has unified the population.
